Aoudad sheep hunting is comparable to hunting any North American wild sheep.  The Aoudad are originally from North Africa and were introduced to West Texas in 1948.  They are now considered to be native game.  A mature ram weighs up to 350 pounds and stands just under 4 feet at the shoulder.  Average horn sizes range from 28” to 30”.  However, we take massive sets over 30” long with 12” to 14” bases each year.  Any ram over 27” should be considered trophy.

These sheep roam through the Glass Mountains and groups of up to 200 are possible, although groups of 50 to 150 are most common.  Hunts are primarily conducted from September through May.  Other months are available, but the heat is very extreme.  The ideal months are October, January, and February.

There are few hunts offered in North America that are as challenging as a Trophy Aoudad hunt.  Even the great state of Texas fails to offer any hunts more challenging than this one.  The BOSS Ranch Aoudad hunt definitely ranks among the most elite fair chase hunts available.  The trophies are grand, however the experience is by and far the greatest reward.

The Premier Aoudad Hunt is three days and four nights for one hunter.  Additional days are considered for groups of two or more.  This hunt includes guides, meals, lodging, and airport shuttle.   This is a guaranteed hunt.  If the hunt is not successful, we will reschedule the hunt for a later date at the hunter’s convenience, or a refund of 50% ($2,250) will be offered.   For hunt preparation by both parties, one should book this hunt 3 to 6 months in advance.
